machinery for men, thereby reduc-
ing the number of hands required
to carry on a plantation and the
alienation of cotton with forage
crops that would fill the soil with
roots would retain the virgin con-
dltion, and yield of the soil IN
definitely, with light applications
of manure or fertilizer unless these
soils contain some factor not
known in any other portion of the
globe.
The grazing and fattening of
cattle is q business that is spread
over half of the country and one
that is receiving more attention
than any other branch of agricul.
ture from shrewd business men.
In the development of the cattle
industry 1t has been found that 1t
is cheaper to move the animal to
the food supply than to transfer
the food to the animal. We notice
therefore that the calf that is bred
in Texas may be grazed In Colorado
or Nebraska then carried to Iowa
or Illinois where the corn is grown
or even to Virginia to be fattened
for market, Eastern bred calves
from the dairy regions of N. Y.
State are grazed near the Rocky
mountains, fattened In the central
states, and marketed in New York.
Remembering that this Delta
can make hay and corn as cheaply
as any section of the county and
that will also have large quantities
of the rich cotton seed, and that il
has but q short distance from the
permanent breeding and grazing
grounds Of Texas, what should
prevent 1t from becoming the great
beef ffattening ground of the coun
try.
Right at this present time, al
acre of land well set in meadow o.
forage crop would make a hlghe
average return If the crop in com
bination with cotton seed were fo'
to q fattening steer, than it doe
planted in cotton.
In the interest Of the cotto
planter of the future all possibl
means Of cheapening cost of pre-
duction should be carefully an
thoroughly tested, and above a
things the wonderful fertility
this favored section Of the coun
ry should not be needlessly waste'

cerulean Springs.

The impression has been made
upon some that the little misbehavior
at Cerulean during the big barbecue
last Saturday was but a sample of
what will be kept up during the sea-
son. Such impressions as these are
calculated to injure the reputation
this watering place has hitherto en-
joyed for quietude, and the misde-
meanors OH this occasion were neces-
sary followings of big barbecue,
where all classes are allowed to come
together. This state of affairs was
confined to the one day only and Co.
rulean has been surrounded by a
peaceful calm ever since. Mr.. Heaton,
the able clerk writes us, that already
the rooms are we'll filed, and more
guests will be registered at Cerulean
CHS season than ever before. Mr..
Barney Pool assists Mr.. lIeaton in
the office, and hence more time can be
devoted to the comfort OF guests.
Those who expect to spend their va
cation at some summer resort, could
go 10 no place where more comforts
are offered. Beautiful shade, well
filled tables, good music, and the best
society, are what Cerulean affords.

Sixty Days Ahead.

Another wedding with Jingle of
romance took place last Monday night
In this city. Some months ago Mr..
Gardner came to this city to become
head workman with Forbes & Bro,
and there came with him his daugh-
ter, a magnificent blonde whose I'M
usual beauty and stylishness attracted
attention whenever she appeared on
the streets. She quickly acquired
the reputation of being one of the
prcttiest girls in the city and was Of
ten seen going to and from the post
office. 1t appears that Miss Gardner
left sweetheart behind when she
came to Hopkinsville in the person of
Mr.. ]. d. Rogers, ofGlasgow, young
man now engaged in the revenue
service. This fact explains the in
tense interest manifested in the daily
mails. Last Sunday Mr.. Rogers came
to this city to see his intended, hav-
ing been granted leave of absence
for 80 days. The young couple did
not intend to marry until September,
but before Mr.. Rogers left 1t was de-
cidcd to link their destinies at once
and SO on Monday evening they were
married at the young lady's home.
The groom left for Glasgow the fol-
lowing day to prepare home for his
beautiful bride, who will leave to-
morrow to join her husband. The
months leave of absence will be util-
lied for honeymoon purposes.
This change in the programme
will render 1t unnecessary for Mr..
Rogers to lay off duty again in Sep
TENDER in order to transact wedding
business. The KENTUcKIAN wishes
the newly married couple a happy
and prosperous future.

Death Of a Distinguished Lady,

The death of Mrs. Abbey Brown
Perry, Thursday morning at five
minutes past 4 o'clock, at her resi-
dence on 9th street, cast deep gloom
of sorrow over our community and the
announcement of her demise will be
read with regret by the friends
of the family abroad, at Philadelphia,
New Bedford, N. Y, Alton, H.,
Cleveland, Ohio, Natchez, Miss, and
other cities. This distinguished lady
was at the time of her death in her
eighty second year. She was chris
tian lady of rare worth and beloved
by all who knew her. Mrs. Perry
was a relict of Rev. Gideon b. Perry,
long in the church's service. She
leaves three children and an adopted
daughter, all of whom were with her
when she died. She was married in
1923, and has lived in this city TWEEN
ty years. Mrs. Perry has been in
feeble health for some time, but was
not seriously ill until about two
weeks ago. The funeral will be
preached at the Episcopal church at
8 80 o'clock Saturday afternoon, and
the remains laid to rest in the City
Cemetery.

Died Alone In His Barn.

Mr.. VIM. Malone, a well-known
citizen of the Belleview district, who
lived near the county line, was found
dead in his barn shortly after noon
last Monday. He ate hearty break
fast and although he was complain
ing of pain in his side went to the
barn to strip tobacco. The dinner
bell was rung at noon and as he fail
ed to respond messenger was sent
TO tho barn and the old gentleman
found dead. He had evidently drop
ped dead of heart disease some hours
before. A few days before he had
remarked to a neighbor that he had
a presentiment that he would moi
live long. Mr.. Malone was about @

The Industrial Conference.

The communication sent out 10 al
the counties of the State by Gov
Knot. and the committee on the Ken.
lucky Industrial and Commercial
Conference, describing the outline oil
the Convention and appointing county
Committees TO organize local work,
have met with royal welcome. In
answer to about 375 appointment let
ters have been received from q large
majority accepting, any the prospect
is that the conference to be held in
September will be very largely at
tended and will bring out valuable
practical information about the entire
State. The meeting could not have
been called at more opportune time
since the people of Kentucky seem
fully awakened to the necessity of
advertising to the world The many
natural sources of wealth and the
great strides in development that she
is making. We have heard a great
deal about Alabama In the past few
years but there were more millions OF
new capital invested in Kentucky
last year than in Alabama, and more
miles or railroad are under contract
in Kentucky than in any other State
in the union save Kansas. Millions
of money are now being invested to
open the coal, iron and timber lands
in Southeastern and in Western Ken
lucky and the next two years will
probably see movements in the State
more important and attended with
the creation of more wealth than fol
any similar time in the States history
The Industrial and Commercial Con-
vention is intended to emphasize these
facts and send broadcast about Ken.
tucky's wonderful natural riches thai
will interest the whole world in the

THE OHIO VALLEY RAILROAD
TO COME BY HOPKINS
WILLIE.
.he Proposition Submitted.

Interest in railroad matters has
grown stronger since Tuesday when
it was known that Hon. j. Il. Clay,
attorney for the o. V. II r., had come
to our city prepared TO make a defin-
lite proposition TO our people for an
other outlet. Mr.. Clay met with the
II. & G. directors at Judge Landes
Office on Tuesday night and laid his
proposition before them which is as
follows:
"The people of said precincts shall
take stock in the o. ", to the amount
of 100000, none of which is 10 be
paid till the road is being actively
operated between Hopkinsville and
Princeton. The Ohio Valley guaran-
tees the repayment of the face value
of the bonds at any time within 20
years of the date OF the bonds, If the
road to which said aid is extended
shall fall into the hands of the l.. ~ N.
or its successor. tits further guaran-
iced that IIopkinsville shall have
faithful competitive rates in and out.'
The city has already voted $4,000
and only $4,000 more is required.
Mr.. Clay will put the matter before
the county court Monday, asking
permission to have the matter voted
upon in the two precincts, as early as
possible. Our citizens, should give
the matter prompt and proper con-
sideration as they will be called upon
to decide in a short while. The II.
& G. directors have relinquished all
claims the the $4,000 voted, and the
100000 proposition will be submitted
instead.
Mr.. Clay met with the citizens of
Cadiz Monday night, and proposed
to them If they would take $4,000 as
a town aud $4,000 as county, be-
sides the subscriptions to secure right
of way and terminal facilities, the
road would be built from here to Ca
diz. Should this proposition be ac-
copied, the o. V. will probably ex-
tend the road to Columbus, giving
us the connections SO long looked for
ward to by our people.
II looks as if Hopkinsville's time
had come TO put on new growth,
and IL our people have any desire to
keep with the thrift and enterprise OF
growing cities, they should not let
golden opportunities like this pass.
